Do not attempt to

recharge a frozen bat-
tery. Thaw it first other-

wise it could explode. If the bat-
tery froze, make sure the inter-
nal elements are not broken
(short-circuit risk) and that the
casing is not cracked (risk of
spilling the poisonous and corro-
sive fluid).

Incorrect fitting of elec-

trical and electronic ac-
cessories can seriously

damage the vehicle. If after buy-
ing the car, you want to install
other accessories, contact a Fiat
Dealership whose qualified per-
sonnel, in addition to suggesting
the most suitable devices, will
evaluate whether the car’s elec-
tric system should be integrated
with a more powerful battery.

CAR MAINTENANCE

202

When working on the

battery or near it, always
wear the proper goggles.

Running the battery

with low fluid level can
damage the battery be-

yond repair and could also cause
its explosion.

If the car is left inactive

for long periods at cold,
remove the battery and

store it in a warm place to pre-
vent freezing.
